I did not collect any pins - not of interest to me but I have some from ATL and SLC.

I have an ATL '96 pin with a DL 767 on it.

I actually have two from ATL & SLC as well. I tried dropping them off in a geocache this weekend in Lake Placid(I thought it was appropriate) but alas, the measly 6" of snow made it impossible for me to find.

At least you both cleared the upgrade. :D

True that! Currently delayed another hour. Hoping the crew doesn't go illegal. Club will close 2 hours before the flight goes :(

Good Evening Box.

I am sick. I currently sound like a Fog Horn, which is am improvement over my no voice from this morning. Atleast I don't have a sore throat or a runny nose, just a deep voice that is not sexy.

This is the same virus that we love to pass around at our house. Guess it's my turn this month to have this thing. :rolleyes:

Oh dear!:eek: I hope you feel better soon!^

Plus1 is very sad he missed lost. I'm very sad I missed the Olympics. Such is life. I do, however, get to hear all about someone's life across the club. Oh, that's right, I don't give a $%!t!

I'm from IAH. We got no hills. We got festering, we got heat, and we got crime. But we got no hills. :rolleyes:

;) that is covered in Texas Drivers Ed too, you point the wheels such that if it were to roll downhill, the tires will hit the curb and hopefully stop the car from rolling further.

Congrats. And I happened to eat lunch at Costco in Vancouver recently.

Eating at Costco in YVR does not compute.

Hello from the orchestra pit, which for this show is a platform 9 feet above the stage. If I make it through this run without falling backwards off the thing and breaking my neck, it will be amazing.

I'm hooked on Port, after this weekend. If anyone's headed to Portugal anytime soon, I highly recommend the Ferreira tour in Porto.

ETA - Tried White Port for the first time, as well. ^^^

Now that work is a reality once again, I think the 12-day Med cruise might be the honeymoon of choice, even though it doesn't time well to what will likely be the wedding date.

Are you leaning towards the earlier or later date?

I have a VERY love-hate relationship with the things. If the weather isn't great or I'm trying to sleep...horrid. If it's a clear night in the magical exit row of the E120 from SEA-PDX, it's super fun.
